Stonegrill – Huskinsson

Thursday, 18 Nov 10

Let’s go down south for the long weekend, they said, We can go to the beach. I have a lot due after that weekend, I said. We’ll leave you at home by yourself, they said. I went. It rained. Such is life.

I had received a recommendation by the mum of two of the kids I tutor to visit the “place where you can cook steak on a rock” in Huskisson, a bare 20 minute drive from where we were staying, and so on what was to become a dark windy stormy night, we visited. A 3 course set menu with lots of options was available, so we each ordered. Not even 10 minutes later (of the NRL grand final, if i remember correctly?) our entrees appeared.

Chilli-garlic prawns and garlic prawns were buttery, if a slightly overcooked, while generous serves of bruschetta were crisp on the outside and garlic-buttery on the inside. Good thing no one was going to do any kissing =P

Then the mains swiftly appeared. Mum had the seafood plate, with some fish, a scallop, mussel and a lone prawn which she unfortunately dropped. The premise was to turn the food over once it had cooked on one side, as that stone underneath was extremely hot! A little oil would have gone down well though, as the seafood was particularly prone to sticking to the stone.

The marinated chicken was a little more successful, gaining a golden crust on the outside, whilst staying tender on the inside as long as you didn’t overcook it. The waitress told us to be sure to cook the chicken thoroughly, cutting off three bite-sized pieces at a time and allowing them to cook on the rock while we ate.

I do believe I had the best value though – a massive hunk of steak was placed in front of me. I love my steak practically still running, so this means of cooking was perfect for me. Again, I was told to cut bite-sized pieces and allow them to cook while I ate, but I must confess to barely allowing them to sear before I scoffed them. (Mum always said I had vampire teeth xD) I also had the largest serve of protein, so there was lots to share. The only thing I wasn’t terribly impressed by was the dianne sauce. A simple wholegrain honey or dijon mustard would have suited me much better.

Absolutely stuffed, we finished with mudcake and mixed berry cheesecake. Overall, it was a decent and filling meal for $35, and we particularly enjoyed the interactive component. We hear that a Stonegrill has opened up near our house, so we’ll have to check that out sometime.
